The sun lowers and turns everything golden, and heavy shadows spread from the tall trees, making the habitats look endlessly deep and wild. The girls move away from the fenceline and walk off into this natural wonderland, and the rest of the day is theirs alone. Far from human industrialism and chaos, it’s a space that mimics the natural life of an elephant.

After decades in circuses and zoos, one of the greatest gifts for the sanctuary elephants is peace.

In the evenings, as the caregivers finish delivering the girls’ dinner, office staff leaves for the day, and the maintenance team puts down their tools, a special stillness starts to fall over the sanctuary. In the absence of the sounds of human hustle and bustle, the hum of the bugs and birdsong fills the space.

Despite the small size of their brains #bumblebees are really really good at navigation.
They navigate on a par with vertebrates and in certain aspects their sense of direction is better than that of humans.

Research suggests that protecting/enhancing existing #hedgerows with early blooming species like #willow, hawthorn, ground ivy, red dead-nettle, maple and cherry could improve bumblebee colony success rate from 35-100%.
